Why are you so awesome? And on a more serious note, what do you do to address the continually low quality of airport services in the country? Shall we see an update to the FAA's technology, long needed?

I am awesome because I am President, I am President because I am awesome. (Jk, because I know some haters will take this out of context)

My administration is looking to ways to make air travel more efficient and convenient, internally and internationally.

My mistake; I meant OTH discharges are the most severe form of administrative discharge, not overall discharge.

What is the administration's long-term strategy for addressing Iran?

We understand the threat a nuclear Iran could pose to stability in the Middle East region. My administration is monitoring the situation carefully and convincing Iran to cut ties with terrorist organizations is absolutely a top priority.

Aw Polnut, I'm sad to see a thread like this coming from you. You always provide fair and rational opinions to the forum, even when certain individuals don't do the same. I encourage you to stay, but I understand if you want to go for a little while. Just don't let the noise of a few trolls take over the board, because then they win.

Exactly!

I, too, can be appalled at some of the hackishness from some leftist posters or the ignorance and hatred from some of the conservative posters but its our job to stand up and help keep rational discussion going. It's easy to put the morons on ignore. There's too many posters worth talking to that leaving doesn't make sense. Filter out the trash and enjoy yourself. That's what I do.

I'm put off by the excessive politicization of our daily lives. I don't care to defend or attack Chik-fil-a per se but where is the line drawn? I feel like anyone spending money at places like this would understand that some people in the organization will probably donate to causes they support and others to causes they don't. That is how a business works.

I'm working in the CLT area this summer and have noticed too that the ads from both Obama and Romney have dropped off since late spring, early summer. Sign that NC will be out of reach?

Virginia too, soon. The vicious attacks on capitalism will soon resonate among the wealthy voters in Virginia. Possibly more than any other state, the Democrats are reliant on wealthy voters in Virginia.

Hence of course Connolly covering his own rear by voting for tax cuts!
